'Bob the Builder: Festival of Fun'

[WII] [UK] [MAGAZINE] [2009]

"In each episode, Bob and his group help with renovations, construction, and repairs and with other projects as needed. They are also joined by work colleague Wendy, alongside their neighbours and friends. The action is set in Bobsville; with Sunflower Valley and Fixham Harbour introduced in later seasons. The show emphasises conflict resolution, co-operation, socialisation, and various learning skills. Bob's catchphrase is "Can we fix it?", to which the other characters respond with "Yes we can!" This phrase is also the title of the show's theme song, which was a million-selling number one hit in the UK." ~Wikipedia

180 was a 501 darts game released by Mastertronic in 1986 for a number of platforms. Normal darts rules apply in this championship tournament. The objective is to win a best of three match, then one match at the semifinals to progress to the final boss, Jammy Jim. If you win just one leg against him you win the tournament. There are 8 opponents you can choose from to play against, all with silly names (Del Boy Desmond, Sure Shot Sidney, Devious Dave, Limp Wrist Larry, Beer Belly Bill, Mega Mick, Tactical Tel, and Jammy Jim).

180 enjoyed a warm reception, with the C64 version getting a 70% rating from ZZAP! Magazine.
